30-Minute Recycled-Paper Old-Underwear Notebook. Day 20. Ya.

Underwear Notebook
Underwear Notebook

At 10:30 last night it dawned upon me that I had not yet Thing-A-Dayed and needed something fast. I frantically started pulling drawers open and throwing junk onto my desk. I found a couple of pairs of mangled underwear that I never bothered to throw out, some scrap paper and about a dozen pull-string toys. I couldn’t help but look at the supplies and think of these recycled office paper blank books.

The pull-string toys were not of much use for this, so, I put them away and immediately set to work on making a recycled notebook using my old underwear as a cover (its clean, don’t worry). I couldn’t really remember how to make a book at first, having not done it in some years, but I managed to wing it.

This can be replicated in about 30 minutes and should cost about nothing to make.

Check out the instructions here.

  • I was really confused by the underwear part until I realised you meant boxer shorts…I was trying to work out how small the notebook would have to be to cover it in the amount of fabric in my old underwear! Good instructable:)
